Detailed Information

The Real Value of Sangsoo Herb

An example of the value of Sangsoo Herb is its role as an herb pioneer in Korea. It introduced herbs to the country 15 years ago and spread the herb culture throughout the nation. However, its real value is its possession of the most advanced gardening technology in the world herb industry. The current remarkable growth of Sangsoo Herb is the natural result of its advanced technological background.

This technological factor clearly sets Sangsoo Herb apart from other herb companies that depend heavily on imports. This is the real value of the company which will take charge of the future of Korean herbs as a next-generation leader of the herb industry. We are steadily striving with the four following mottos as our missions to realize our corporate value.
